Untamed is the debut album of the American country music band Yankee Grey. It was released in 1999 (see 1999 in country music) on Monument Records Nashville. The album produced three chart singles on the Billboard country charts. In order of release, these were "All Things Considered" at number 8, "Another Nine Minutes" at number 15, and "This Time Around" at number 43. The fourth and final single, which was the title track, failed to chart. By 2000, Yankee Grey were dropped from Monument's roster, and frontman Tim Hunt left due to vocal complications.
